CR-150-R5 CSP evaluation board

The CR-150-R5 is an evaluation board for any of the CR-11X CSP modules. The board has provisions to be powered either by a wall-mounted power supply (CR-24V, sold separately) or by the user's +/-12V power supply. There are 3 PC mountable BNC connectors included but not installed onto the board. There is provision for biasing the detector using 'AC coupling' and a 'test input' is included. A shielded housing is available for this board: CR-150-BOX-R5.

This is part of an 'a la carte' approach to constructing a CSP instrument. A CR-11X module, plus this CR-150-R5 eval board, plus the CR-150-BOX-R5 housing, plus the CR-24V power supply, and finally some assembly (including soldering) will provide you with the equivalent of a CR-Z-11X CSP instrument.

Modular approach

Use a modular approach in developing radiation detection instrumentation. Changes or repairs may be simply effected by changing modules.

Detect femtoJoule optical pulses

With a common pin photodiode, a low noise charge sensitive preamplifier and shaping amplifier, you can detect femtoJoule optical pulses. Here is a demonstration.

Why use charge sensitive preamplifiers?

Use a charge sensitive preamplifier (CSP) design to detect pulses with high precision and low noise.
Why Use CSPs?

Open Source Hardware

All of Cremat's 'non-module' electronics, such as evaluation boards and instruments, are offered as Open Source Hardware. You can access and use these designs in your own commercial instrumentation.
